The Long And Short of December
Okay. Well..it was a busy month. Shopped, shopped, shopped. Unwrapped. Drove for 24 hours up the map. Saw some people, we laughed and we cried. Went sled riding and built a snow man with Savannah. Threw out everything I believe in and ate disgustingly out of sheer laziness and stupidity (could have filmed a Supersize Me 2 last week) not to mention peer pressure. Drove for 24 hours back down the map. Got on the scale gained five pounds. Wanted to beat the fucking bastard scale up with a hammer. Went to the store and bought $286 worth of fruit and veggies and nuts. Weaning myself back to Raw. Lost two pounds already. All the way home the whole family listed all the raw food they were missing like crazy. Even the kids were saying "No more doughnuts, mom. We want a smoothie." Groovy, eh?
Today hope had three teeth pulled on the bottom. I was traumatized by the whole experience, she was an absolute trooper. Poor baby. Ice cream all around. Except for my lard ass, that is.
I will go into more detail later but for now I should just mention that I got to see some people from my mom's side of the family that I hadn't been in contact with for about seven years because of the whole horrible situation in my family. It was good. No one asked any hard questions. It is a good thing for them I guess, as I was prepared to tell them the whole ugly truth. Anyway, they all grew up and old. Breaks my heart.
The good thing with me not really posting here much is that it is a sign that I have other things to do besides sit here like a bump on a log all day rehashing my boring problems. I must say I don't even think about posting much anymore. I did just renew my domain name though, couldn't just let it go I guess. I don't even think more than a handful of people even read this anymore. I have no way of knowing anymore. I will be getting my own computer back tomorrow though as Terry had a new cord and battery overnighted to me last night. That is a good thing.
